Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly twothirds of the worlds population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive (=continue to live). Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of mans needs.The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by mans technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined (开采).Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish (贝类动物) is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents (水流) and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.Technology is enabling man to explor ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2000 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.（1）The major things that the sea offers man are _.

A . the people in AsiaB . African peopleC . European peopleD . American people（5）The best title for this passage is _. A . Sea HarvestB . Sea FoodC . Technology for Exploiting the SeaD .

If English hadnt changed for a long time, we wont have words to describe telephones, washing machines, computers or some other new things.Language changes for several reasons. First, it changes because the needs of its speaker change. New technologies, new products, and new experiences need new words to express them clearly. Another reason for change is that different people have different language experiences. People use different sets of words and expressions, because they have different ages, jobs, education levels(水平) and so on.How does language develop then? On the one hand, many of the languages changes begin with young people. When young people communicate with others of their own age, their language grows in grammar, words and expressions that are different from the older peoples. Some have a short lifetime but others can influence the language for long. On the other hand, we get new words in many different ways. We borrow them from other languages, we create them by making words shorter or combining words and we make them out of proper names.Languages that dont change over time are considered dead languages. The fact that English changes so much shows that it is alive and well.（1）What does the writer think of the change and development of language? He thinks it is _.（2）Why do people use different sets of words and expressions according to the passage? Because their _and education levels are different.（3）How many reasons for language change are mentioned in this passage? The writer mentions _reasons.（4）How do young people help develop language? They do it when they _others of their own age.（5）What is considered a dead language according to the passage? The one that _over time is considered a dead language.六、 选词填空（共10小题，计10分） (共1题；共10分)22. （10分）用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空。 proud exact Europe speak silence（1）France is a_country, which is famous for its wine. （2）All the students sitting_when the headmaster was giving a talk. （3）Parents always take_in everything good that their kids do. （4）Among all the_, his was the most encouraging. （5）You copied this work off Paul because youre made_the same mistakes. 七、 听写 (共5小题，计5分） (共1题；共5分)23. （5分）听下面一段较长对话回答问题。 （1）What did Joys dad ask her to do?
